Nearly 1 million Americans are living with a blood cancer. Every 5 minutes, there is a new diagnosis and every 10 minutes, someone loses the fight. At RooterPLUS, we are working to help change those statistics … and you can help. On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), I am honored to invite you to help us Stick It 2 Cancer by supporting our "Cruise In for A Cure" event. All proceeds will be donated to LLS to aid in their mission of finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkins disease, and myeloma.
On September 16, 2012 we will hold the first annual "Cruise In for a Cure" and invite car enthusiasts to showcase their cars for an amazing cause. The event will be co-hosted by Team JTech and will be held in the Pizzeria Azzurri Parking Lot (3560 Brown's Bridge Rd, Cumming) at 1pm. Awards will be presented at 4pm. Pizzeria Azzurri will also be donating 20% of the day's sales to LLS.
There are many ways you can help with this event:
- Our team has committed to raising $10,000 this year through several special events including our Cruise In, and by asking our family, friends, and customers to participate in the Light the Night Walk on September 22, 2012 at the Cumming Fairgrounds. This is actually the easiest way to help reach our goal of smashing cancer. The details to donate or join our team are here:
- Share this event with your family, friends, and co-workers who may have a "cool" car or truck. All vehicle types are welcome! Ask them to participate in this event by showcasing their pride and joy at the Cruise In. Registration is a $25 donation per vehicle and 100% goes to LLS.
- Join us and bring lots of family and friends to the "Cruise In for a Cure" event on September 16th. While there, eat lunch or dinner with us at Pizzeria Azzurri, as they are donating 20% of all sales that day directly to LLS on our behalf. By simply eating, you will help us raise money towards finding a cure for cancer.
- Lastly, we are looking for larger corporate sponsors to help with awards, gift bags for everyone who brings an automobile, and other family-friendly event donations like a bounce house for the kids. If this is a place where you can help, please share this email accordingly. The sponsorship information is below.
